Extreme Sailing Series™ has given the sport of sailing a healthy dusting-off. Bringing the action to the public with Stadium Sailing, putting guests at the heart of the battle and dramatically increasing the pace on the water, the creators of the Extreme Sailing Series™ have set new standards, both in terms of high level competition and sporting entertainment.

The 2013 Extreme Sailing Series™ seventh edition was a truly global circuit, with a fleet made up of some of the world's greatest sailing talent. Six established teams were joined by home nation and wildcard entries throughout the year in the fight to secure the Series trophy - one of the most coveted in the sport. With so much at stake for winning the world's most elite level Stadium Racing series, there was no holding back.

From the Middle East to Asia, and Europe to South America, after seven Acts, three continents and 190 races, it came down to final leg of the final race for the 2013 victor to be crowned in what was a truly spectacular sporting battle. Watch the final episode of the 2013 official TV series from with expert commentary by double Olympic gold medallist Shirley Robertson here.

The 2014 Series and teams will be officially announced on the 8 January from the London Boat Show - the most ambitious Series to date and one of the most competitive line-ups ever!
